Catastrophe or Karma?

By: Katie Harbaugh

For anyone who hasn’t watched the news lately, Texas experienced its first legitimate snowfall in years. Not only that, but record-low temperatures met with ill-equipped infrastructure caused dozens of deaths and even more cold-related injuries. As a midwesterner, it can be easy to make jokes about the south “not being used to the cold,” until you realize that people have died because of it.

A Positive COVID-19 Article (Finally!)

By: Katie Harbaugh

Eva’s capstone project, described by Eva;

My page is about understanding the social inequalities of shaker heights. Holistically, shaker heights succeeds national standards in

average income, health insurance, and poverty percentage. However, this affluence does not apply to all of our community. IN my

project I use public 202 cencus data to find this divide. I also investigate the history of shaker heights to understand why this has

happened.
